Ed O'BrienIf there's one lesson I've taken from the last month or so of unprecedented change and self-isolation, it's that we human beings truly need each other. We have always known that we're social animals, but suddenly being unable to gather together, it becomes even more obvious how deeply we crave that human connection. While working on his debut solo album,
was inspired by things like late night raves at music festivals and Brazil's Carnival. In our conversation, he talks about those moments of community, of understanding, of us all being in it together.. He's been playing music with his Radiohead bandmates — Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Colin Greenwood and Philip Selway — since their school days. Through the years, some of those members have tried their hands at solo projects, and now it's Ed's turn.
